State Debt Seen Up
!500 Since 1945
J Oregon in 1952 ranked 18th in
the nation in terms of state in
debtedness, it is shown in a fiscal
study of the Northwest Research
Council of the National Associa
tion of Manufacturers at Port
land. The stale's debt, in 1952, was
$110,50 4,000 an incrase of some
500';. since 1915. This means a
per capita debt share of $71.82 for
Oregon residents.
New York state lops the list
with a state debt of $909,052,000,
while the national total of slate
indebtedness was $0,871,135,000
last year.
The NRC blames this stale's
increasing mdeiileiiness on uic!
"increasing size of our national
government."
"Today, Uncle Sam takes 77''! !
of each Oregonian's tax dollar.",
the NRC slated. "In 1938. this j
figure was 40'v ."
The 23', of the tax dollar that :
is left to stale and local govern-1
mcnts is not sufficient to allow
the states to carry on necessary:
pojects. such as building schools
and hospitals, wihoul going fur-1
titer in debt, the NRC avers.
In 1951, 27 states were torced
to operate "in the red," and in
1952, no state was without a state
debt, the NRC pointed out. Na-

tional total of state indebtedness
increased $1,589,000,000 from 1950
to 1952.
The NRC report went on:
"Squeezed between rising costs
and limited tax revenues, the
states have been forced to accept
money from the federal govern
ment to carry on purely local
activities.
"There are some 45 different
programs through which the fed
eral government sends our tax,'
! money to states in grants -in-'aid. j
jOnly a small part of what Ore-
jgonians pay in federal taxes isj
'ever returned for use in this state,!

Fstimates of the NKC indicate
that in 1952 Oregon sent somej
$1101 million in taxes to Washing-1
ton, I). C, and in 11)51 received I
only about $22 million in federal'
grants.
"Government hand-outs are us-,
ually accompanied by govern-1
ment supervision of the use of that ;
money. Thus the states anil
cities lose the right to administer
their affairs as they see fit," the
NIIC said.
"The problem can be solved,"
the NPvC added, "only by return

rightful responsibility for local
activities and enough money to
execute them.
